Is it dangerous for a king snake to be out in the open at night, it's 88 degrees right now, low will be 68 tonight. I think it's injured.

Snakes can hunt at night or if the temp is too cold they hibernate until the weather gets warmer
snakes live in the open and are well capable of looking after themselves
tey should only be handled by professional snake handles especially injured snakes as they are very dangerous if injured

I have a family of possums in my shed so need to no what do thay eat so I can get them out

they eat fruit, grubs leaves etc
ti get them out first close off all the openings that they can get through leaving one open for night as they are nocturnal animals and roam and forage at night
next have a snake handler put a carpet snake in the shed
close the night opening leaving the snake inside and they will not be able to get in but if they do because you thought that they wouldn't get through that little hole , they will vacate as soon as they smell the snake

WHY DOES MY FURNACE SHUT OFF BEFORE REACHING TEMP

Hi Demetrio
Furnaces turn on and off based on what they're told by your thermostat. The thermostat, in turn, will control the furnace based on:
  1. The temperature AT the thermostat.
  2. What the internal heat sensor thinks the temperature of the air is.
So, if your idea of 68 degrees is what the thermostat thinks is 71 degrees (thermostat reads three degrees high), then when the air by the thermostat gets to about 65 degrees (by your account), it'll think it's 68 degrees and shut the furnace off.

Also, if the thermostat is, say, near a source of local heat, like a lamp, a big piece of electronics, a fireplace, or that place that you habitually set down your coffee, then the air right next to the thermostat may be warmer than the rest of the room, and fool it into thinking it's at it's target.

The sensor is usually inside the housing for the thermostat. If it hasn't been dusted in a while, then it can be hard for air to get inside to affect the sensor, though this would generally cause it to lag on readouts and run the temperature higher than you wanted.

If you have a digital readout, and the system is saying , hey, target is 68, and the readout gets to 66 and the system cuts off the furnace.... my only other guess is that the unit may have features that are trying to prevent overshoot - i.e. by the time the temp at the thermostat actually gets to 68, most of the room is more like 73. That'd depend on your particular thermostat. At that point, you may want to call customer service with the manufacturer and tell them the issue. There may be ways to adjust the unit to get behavior closer to what you seek.

Good Luck!

Are black snakes with yellow rings dangerous?

Sounds like a King snake which is not dangerous. They will strike and bite if cornered, so I would leave them alone.

Raypak model 130a only heats water to 90 degrees

Check the temperature sensor for resistance (ohms).
Temperature
(deg. F) 61 68 70 77 86 88 95 104 106
(k ohms) 14.92 12.49 11.88 10.00 8.06 7.69 6.53 5.33 5.10

If your ohms are below about 7K the heater thinks the water is hotter than it actually is, so it shuts down. It's a fairly common repair.

A snake likes to get right up next to my front door at night. One night when I opened the door he tried to come inside. When I open the door he goes under the metal plate at the floor. What can I do to...

I bet the snake is there to eat bugs. Do you have a light on by the door. The light attracts bugs. The snake just wants to eat them. Keep the light off unless you really need it and the snake will find another place to catch bugs.

I think i over charged my ac unit 80 lowside 251 high side.big coper pipe is cold, small coper pipe is not hot. just wondering if that would have an affect on quality of air

You may have it a little overcharged but not much. It all depends on how hot it is outside. If its around 90 degrees F, the low side would be about 68 to 70 lbs. (refrig 22) If its 110 degrees F outside, you're sitting about right. Just make sure it's not sweating water from the big copper pipe onto the compressor. This would mean you have a pretty big overcharge.

Samsung 8000 btu window air conditioner

Air conditioners rely on a difference in pressure between the "high side" and "low side" in order to perform. Of course, a/c's are designed to work in the heat. Having a cooler outdoor temp of 70 degrees probably is not sufficient to maintain adequate head pressure and will result in reduced cooling capacity. Also, since it was 68 in the morning in the room, it is possible that the indoor coil began to freeze up. Basically, you have a cold coil that you keep warm by moving air over it. If the air doesn't have enough specific heat (what your thermometer measures) it can allow the coil to get colder than 32 degrees and the condensate from all of your humidity will begin to freeze on the coil. My recommendation would be to check the a/c on a day that is 80+ degrees. If you have an avarage indoor temp of 70 degrees you should be able to look for the air coming out to be approximately 20-25 degrees colder than the air being sucked in.
